Public Records Log: Our Open-Records Requests

Public records log

A watchdog that shows its work. Every Public Information Act request we file is logged here: the date, the agency, what we asked, the status, and the responsive documents when they arrive.

City of El Paso · Not yet filed

Any Chapter 312, Chapter 380, or other tax incentive or abatement agreement with Marathon Petroleum Company (El Paso refinery) from 2000 to present, including applications, agreements, and compliance reports.

Status: Planned

"The Marathon deal" comes up in every conversation about El Paso incentives. Our searches found no new 2024-2026 incentive agreement; this request asks whether an older one exists and what its terms are.

No responsive documents yet. They will be posted here when they arrive.

File your own

You do not need us to ask. Our Public Information Act request generator drafts a records request for city or county vendor payments in your browser. If you file one, send us the response at tips@elpasotaxwatch.com and we will log it here.

About the Texas Public Information Act

Texas agencies must respond promptly to records requests. If an agency wants to withhold records, it must generally seek a ruling from the Attorney General within ten business days. Deadlines and procedures are in the statute; this page describes our requests, not legal advice.
